Make kurdish a recognised mordern language GCSE in the UK.

We as Kurdish people are one of the largest minority groups in the world without our own country, with a population of well over 40 million in world. The United Kingdom is not without it's own fair share of Kurdish people, nearly 50,000 according to the latest census; with that number increasing daily we feel it is time we are recognised and given a modern language GCSE. There are currently a vast amount of Kurdish schools being run by Kurdish communities and mosques in the UK, the children attending these schools at the moment only gain self pride, however if there was a Kurdish GCSE these children (who not only are the future of Kurdistan but also the UK) would gain a valuable qualification that they can hold forever. Furthermore with Kurdistan being located in the heart of the Middle East it has huge economic power and with the recent independence push it holds great political interest to the UK as an ally in the Middle East. This will also be useful for those Kurdish people that have recently come to the UK as asylum seekers, as they too can gain a qualification more easily than they currently can and further enhance their education within the UK. Lastly this would help get more kurdish people into professional jobs within the UK, it would also create more professional jobs for the people of the UK. Please take one minute out of your day to share this cause and help the kurdish language be recognised as a modern language. Thank You.
